Netflix's New NASCAR Docuseries Redefines High-Octane Entertainment.
Guess what? NASCAR fans are in for a treat! Just like the exciting "Formula 1: Drive to Survive" series that made Formula 1 races super popular, NASCAR is hopping on the documentary series bandwagon with a Netflix show.
NASCAR and Netflix have joined forces to bring us a new documentary series, set to premiere in early 2024. This time, the spotlight will shine on the intense 2023 Cup Series Playoffs. If you're curious about these playoffs, mark your calendar for the first race on September 3 at the Darlington Raceway in South Carolina.
Get ready for five captivating episodes, each lasting 45 minutes, that will give us an insider's view of the action. From the heart-pounding races to the behind-the-scenes moments, we'll get to know the drivers and team members both on and off the track.
Oh, and guess who's in on the action? NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr.!
This exciting announcement comes hot on the heels of the successful "Race for the Championship" series that aired in 2022 on the USA Network. That show gave us an inside look at the NASCAR season that year, focusing on how drivers and team members balanced their high-speed careers with their personal lives. And if you're a fan of NASCAR, you might remember the "Race: Bubba Wallace" series that aired on Netflix last year. It followed the 23XI Racing NASCAR team driver backed by none other than Michael Jordan and treated us to six thrilling episodes.
